Default The Wisdom of War: Quotes Relevant to MP Games

"He knew men such as these. Their courage held so long as they outnumbered their victims, the hollow glory they thirsted for came with overpowering and terrorizing the helpless. Such creatures were common in the world, and a land locked in war left them to run free, the brutal truths behind every just cause. They were given a name....the vultures of violence."

- Kalam, Deadhouse Gates

This to me is the number one truism in Dominions MP games. You can rarely survive for long without communicating with your neighbors - trading, treaties, and alliances. If you fail to secure friends, expect to be attacked. Most people will only attack in numbers and will definitely attack as soon as you demonstrate some sign of weakness. As soon as you are involved in war, expect to be attacked if you have not secured treaties with your neighbors. Most MP players are by their very nature vultures of violence - VoVs.
